Method to Apply Homogeneous-Path Transmittance Models to Inhomogeneous Atmospheres
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: An accurate approximation to calculate atmospheric profiles of transmittance in instrumental spectral intervals is presented. The approximation assumes a known transmittance model; i.e., that the transmittance in the ...
Correction of Satellite Temperature Retrieval Errors Due to Errors in Atmospheric Transmittances
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: It is generally assumed that atmospheric transmittance functions are known to an accuracy of no better than about five to ten percent. Consequently, one can expect a major impact of these errors on temperature retrieves ...
